BUY THAT GUN!!!!!! I own a traditions pursuit and it shoots excellent! Make sure you clean it well before shooting, but for the price, itsa dream. Im shooting barnes bullets out of it and triple 7 pellets and making 200 yrd shots no problem and great accuracy! Really nice groups and very easy to clean. My father has an older traditions tracker 209 and its good , but they really came up in quality in the past few years. We dont use them lots out of the year, i prefer my gun season, but i also love my muzzleloader and hunt the entire month allowed up here for it. When the time comes that i pull the trigger, i know that it will perform , and as far as shooting on the range, No kick and great ease in shooting, the trigger comment must have been resolved because i can shoot all day and not be fatigued.
